Here's the problem, the voltage from the alternator spikes to over 16 volts under a load. Under a load, i.e. accelleration. Everyone says it has to be the voltage regulator, and I agree. This sounds like a pretty common thing and I'm not looking forward to changing the alternator. 99 SVT, Black/Blue #1720 of 2760 04 Mazda Tribute ES, fully loaded Check out my website!
